Pecorino Romano is Italy's oldest cheese, dating back to ancient Roman times. This hard, sheep's milk cheese is typically aged for one year, and used as a grating cheese. Zerto Pecorino Romano, like most Pecorino Romano made today, is made in Sardinia where land and sheep are abundant.

Romano is an integral part of many southern Italian dishes, especially those that include pasta, tomatoes, potatoes, and other vegetables. A bit drier and saltier than northern Italian "Grana" cheeses (Parmigiano Reggiano and Grana Padano), this cheese is excellent grated over pasta dishes but is not recommended as an eating cheese. For an eating Romano, please try our Pecorino Romano Genuino, which is still made in Lazio, the region surounding Rome.

Just perfect! Fast shipping, great price and outstanding flavor! We will definitely be ordering again.

French raclette cheese

I was pleased by all items I ordered, except for the French racclette cheese that had mold in the middle of the cheese. My daughter said that it is ok, that it doesn't matter for the cheese, but I am sure that raclette cheese shouldn't have mold. I lived in Switzerland for many years and I know that. But I will still keep oredering stuff from you, because everything else was perfect.

Tasty Cheese

Fast delivery on a moist, tasty cheese. Can be grated or eaten in small chunks; taste is mild to medium.

buy the Genuino instead

Half of the block was hard as rock and half was fine. the hard part was too hard to even grate. This was an inexpensive cheese so, it was still a good price for the good half.

Disappointing

I expect pecorino to be drier with a flavorful bite. This is nice, but bland. We'll try other brands. igourmet service is exceptional!
